EDUCATION: ROSMINI COLLEGE
Rosmini's Senior Touch team.
Senior Touch
For the first time in many years Rosmini College has a dedicated group of senior touch players who are keen to participate in Premier Touch. The arrival of Mr Justin-Leigh Manuel to this school has resulted in a new enthusiasm for touch amongst the senior boys. A competitive group came together to participate in the North West Zone Day and they played with a lot of athleticism and skill. They won all six of their games, only letting in three tries and scoring 55 tries, to come out the winners of the North Western division.
Travelling Pots
On Tuesday 3rd March, 24 Young Vinnies from both Carmel College and Rosmini College joined together to produce more than 70 meals which are to be distributed to the poor and homeless who call upon the St Vincent De Paul Centre in Gundry St, off Karangahape Road, for food parcels and a hot meal. This initiative is called the Travelling Pots and our Young Vinnies are looking to have a "cook up" once a month. At our next gathering they are hoping to produce a 100 meals.

North Harbour Triathlon Rosmini College had seven boys competing in the individual event at the annual North Harbour Triathlon. For Year 7 there was Liam Kelly, Ethan Choy, James McIndoe, Max Simpson and Marlow Winder and for Year 8 there was Luc Sangster. Liam came third and Max came fourth. Due to the sea swell the swim section was removed and the swimmers had to complete a 200 metre dash up the beach, which proved very tough for some of them! Rosmini also entered two teams in the Year 8 event: the first consisting of Benji Bryce, Salvador Cronje and Santino Rodriguez and the second consisting of Mattie Dalton, AJ Douglas and Cooper Hulme. Mattie, AJ and Cooper were defending champions after blitzing the field in 2019 and this year the boys again led from the front and beat the competition again. Congratulations boys!
